Your favourite Star Wars moments

People often complain about the last Star Wars movie, what with the Ewoks and all, but I've always thought the climax of that movie was pretty much spot on. Luke confronting Vader and the Emperor was fantastic, as was the awesome space battle against the second death star.

Hell, I don't think I've seen a better space battle since which is kinda disappointing when you consider that Return of the Jedi came out in 1983.

Well most people agree that if you take out the Ewoks, Return of the Jedi would be much better.

OT
For me its the bit in KotOR II where you confront the Jedi council (assuming you didnt kill them) and hen Kreia comes in and kicks their ass. I also liked the stuff with Atris and her reactions to the exile.

any scene in the movies with wedge antilles, the real hero of the rebellion.

but mostly its the start of the battle of hoth, the preperations and then you see the walkers for the first time.. chills down the spine

Second vote for Wedge, the only guy to survive two Death Star runs and doesn't even have the Force. Who cares who's strongest in the Force? Whoever has Wedge truly wins.

*high five* doesnt have the force, doesnt have han solo or calrissians plot armour and he still kicks ass

I wasn't a huge fan of that Clone Wars cartoon. (I didn't like the animation style, on top of a few other things) But I did like the scene when Ahsoka chose to leave the Jedi. It helped me kind buy Anakin's disillusion with the Jedi. I'm also kind of happy Ahsoka didn't die because she was the only character I really liked in that show.(I liked her even more when she stared wearing a shirt.)

The destruction of the Executor. The moment that shows that even though the Rebels are trapped and could very well lose this fight, they're gonna hit the Empire with everything they have before they go down. Plus I like to believe that Green Leader intentionally aimed his A-wing at the bridge. God I love that scene.

Vader revealing he's Luke's father.

Funnily enough, this happened to my dad when the movie came out, only it was a radio DJ that spoiled it for him. He was seriously pissed. Perhaps that's why he's never been a huge Star Wars fan.

Nothing that I could replicate now but there was one time in Star Wars Empire at War where I was ambushed by a huge rebel fleet consisting of mostly corvettes. I had maybe two dozen Star Destroyers guarding that planet at the time and my main forces would have taken too long moving back in order to prevent an invasion.

So I has a 3 hour long engagement in which I shepherded my valuable TIE craft carefully while keeping my Destroyers in a defensive wedge formation. 3 hours of them washing up against my fleet of capitals. Whenever a Star Destroyer would go down, another would jump in to replace it in the formation. It paid off keeping my TIE fighters and bombers alive because when the last wave of Rebels showed up there were a number of Mon Calamari cruisers, Y-wings and X-wings as well.

I held the line in the name of the Emperor!

...

I miss that AI mod, I should get to reinstalling it sometime. Made the game a lot less predictable.

The best movie moment for sure!

When Luke absolutely ruins Vader (3 minutes into this clip)


Everything about it works. The soundtrack is perfect, it doesn't appear as overly choreographed, and ends with something that the prequels were sorely lacking.......a lightsaber fight where it looked like the blows actually carried weight, and vicious intent.
